The high reliability and performance are needed as the Internet becomes an important social infrastructure. Network delay is one of measure of the performance of network. As the delay between two nodes correlates roughly with the distance between them, the diameter of the network which is the maximum distance of all two nodes must be small. In addition, it is necessary to keep the small network delay against network failures. Therefore, the critical links whose failures significantly degrade the performance must be protected by rapid recovery so that the failures cannot be detected over the IP layer. The number of these protected links must be small to restrict the investment cost of facilities and the operational cost for Internet service providers. Consequently, it is important to find the smallest number of the links to be protected so that the diameter of the network which non-protected links are failured is not more than a given integer.
In this paper, we solve these unsolved issues of this problem. First, we prove that the problem is NP-hard even if k=2. Second, we present approximation algorithms with the approximation ratio of a fixed constant for the NP-hard cases. These results make clear the computational complexity of this problem theoretically and gives an useful network design algorithm also from the practical viewpoints. |
